Welcome to Clent Parish Council website.

Welcome to Clent Parish Council website.

I am very pleased to be able to welcome you to the Clent Parish Council website.

Clent is a beautiful rural parish at the foot of the Clent Hills and surrounded by Worcestershire countryside.

The Parish Council consists of 7 Councillors and meets on the third Monday of each month to discuss matters of interest to local residents. Our Agendas and Minutes of each meeting can be found on this site together with other useful information for residents.

We aim to provide an open, approachable and representative council. As such, this site will become more community based acting as a hub for the wider village, with links to clubs, societies and local businesses.

I hope you find our website both informative and easy to use. If you have any comments or suggestions that you would like us to consider for the site then please let our Clerk, Ruth Mullet know at clent.parish@btconnect.com

FREE SMARTWATER KIT NOW AVAILABLEIn our last newsletter, the Parish Council identified some initiatives to combat crime in our Parish. One of these is the community wide roll out of Smartwater Kits.

Smartwater is an invisible, non-toxic and non-removable substance that can be applied to anything you own without damaging it. It can be easily detected by a special ultraviolet black light that is carried by most Police and Enforcement Officers.

Each bottle of Smartwater is unique to your address allowing items to be traced back to you. There is no doubt as to ownership and criminals avoid Smartwater marked items as prosecution is almost guaranteed.

The most successful Smartwater schemes are where the whole neighbourhood participates, therefore the Parish Council have purchased enough Smartwater kits to supply every home in Clent without charge.

Call into Clent Parish Hall between 9.00am and 5.00pm on Saturday 28th April 2018 to pick up your FREE Smartwater kit.

If you cannot collect on 28th April and would like to make alternative arrangements contact clent.parish@btconnect.com
